Kat's Calf/Bull Fries Recipe
2 pounds calf testicles*
2 cups beer
2 eggs, beaten
1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
¼ cup yellow cornmea1
Salt and ground black pepper to taste
Vegetable oil**
1 tablespoon hot pepper sauce
* You can use bull or calf testicles. Calf testicles are the size of a
walnut and are more tender than the larger bull testicles.
** Use enough vegetable oil to fill your frying container halfway to the top (to
allow for bubbling up and splattering) and to completely cover calf testicles
while frying.
With a very sharp knife, split the tough skin-like muscle that surrounds each
testicle. Remove the skin (you can remove the skin easily if the testicles are
frozen, then peel while thawing). Slice each testicle into approximately ¼- to
½- inch-thick ovals. Place slices in a large pan or blow with enough beer to
cover them; cover and let sit 2 hours.
In a shallow bowl, combine eggs, flour, cornmeal, salt, and pepper. Remove
testicles from beer; drain and dredge thoroughly in the flour mixture. In a
large, deep pot, heat oil to 375° F. Deep fry 3 to 4 minutes or until golden
brown (will rise to the surface when done). Drain on paper towels.
